ABSTRACT
Phage Damascus was isolated from soil in northwestern Wisconsin using Microbacterium paraoxydans as the host. The Damascus genome is 56,477 bp with 3′ single-stranded overhangs and 56.5% G+C content. Damascus was assigned to cluster EL and shares 42.6%–91.7% gene content with the three other phages in this cluster.
